2020 US General Election Thread VI: Covid for VP!

[Blakk Metal]

So remember when everyone's rhetoric about Trump was hyperbole, and now he's practically trying to incite a civil war?

This is part of Trump's strategy. Deep in his heart, he knows that he doesn't deserve to be President of the United States, so he's working hard to make sure the country is no longer united.

He's doing exactly what his boss, Vladimir Putin, wants him to do.

It's still early but given the President is threatening to deploy the military to quell the protests, it could drastically effect his poll numbers, good or bad.

I can't see a world where that effects his poll numbers in a positive manner.

You be surprised, but yeah, I'm incline to agree with you. Unless the military is deployed and there is minimum damage, I can't see it ending well.

Oh?

Any moderate.

I want Warren, I'd settle for Baldwin; anyone else and I'd have to look into their voting record (if applicable), etc., before passing judgement. Harris, Klobuchar, etc. and other moderates are right out.

Baldwin is my preferred choice though at this point, if Trump does go through with deploying the military and things turn violent; hundreds of Americans potentially dying, I don't see myself caring who his VP is at this point: the goal would be to try to vote Trump out of Office, that's if he isn't impeached or removed from Office beforehand. This is extreme case scenario but I am fearful where the direction this country is going. Besides, 2024 is bound to have a few Democratic Challengers, especially a Progressive.

Sure. I'd be singing a very different tune if I didn't live in a state that was guaranteed to give its EC votes to Joe Biden.

Realistically my vote is just to send a message of support more than anything, and so I can tell people in X years that I voted for X candidate when asked.

“I think we may have to account for the distinct possibility that the people who sounded the most apocalyptic about Trump were not being hysterical — they were right.”

-Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii)

For those of you who voted for Trump in 2016 thinking he would grow into the Presidency,...

...we told you in 2016.

Now, America and the world are suffering because of your mistake.
A better leader would have had a better response to Covid-19.
A better leader would try to bring America together instead of tearing it apart.

Giving it the ol' college try doesn't cut it when the college is Trump University.

Elections have consequences.

I live in a swing state myself but even if I lived in a safe D or R state, I'll still pitch in to vote for Biden.

The nation deserves to be torn apart, and not just because of Trump. Why delay the inevitable when you can have the system collapse sooner?

Why do you want societal collapse? What do you hope to gain?

Too bad Clinton primary voters still don't understand that.

Do you really NEED a reason to bring on the collapse of the pathetic system we Americans live in?

[Cisairse]

In other news, the Kansas filing deadline has passed, which means we're definitely not seeing Pompeo's candidacy for Senate there.

[Zurkerx]

Times like this shake our country to its core - and lead to the formation of stronger alliances and greater coalitions than any of us ever thought were possible. Trump has ignored individual liberty since day 1. Together, we can forge a better tomorrow with common sense reforms.

Do my eyes deceive me: the National Libertarian Party agreeing with a Democratic Senator, and possibly joining forces? My god, what are these times we're living in?

That's no ordinary and generic Democratic senator either. It's Brian Schatz for crying out loud.

It's how I view my vote too.

Which shocks me more: he's no moderate if I recall.

[Farnhamia]

Oh they do. Trump was elected.

It's almost like his election had causes and effects.

It's almost as if he got more votes overall than his opponent, instead of a mere 77,000+ in three states. Gosh.

[Myrensis]

If it isn’t Communist red, I officially quit.

It's not. Trump lost Minnesota by the amount of votes meme candidate Evan McMullin received. That will not be the case this time and Minnesotans have witnessed this destruction first hand.

Yes. Every incumbent President dreams of Depression-era unemployment, pandemic disease deaths, and nationwide violent rioting during their re-election campaign, because that's the kind of record that people can really rally behind.

I don't.

I don't.

Yeah, no, the ongoing myth of George Bush as the most recent "reasonable" Republican president is ludicrous. It's like the Eisenhower nostalgia, but more baseless.

We're talking about HW not W.

I really don't miss W.
